Today I'm thankful that I'll be skiing in less than 24 hours (among many other things of course)

I'm even thankful for you trimming your toenails if it means ski season starts tomorrow!

Joy and I did this as part of our recent Stevie Nicks tribute show. Stevie relates that the song was written on a Winter trip to the Colorado Rockies. Landslide.mp4

And to you - and a happy Skison opening to all

I’m happy about that..and I bet they’ll be happy as come around had a ton of non park traffic.

Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving

Expect I will start my Skison this Sat 11/26 at Hunter. They have Belt Parkway, Hellgate, Minya Konka and East Side Drive open - 4 distinct 1500 vertical runs off the top - and it sounds like they may add Overlook before the weekend.

Looks like they're putting a terrain park in up above the summit lodge in the old school area. Give the jibhonks their own carpet ride! https://fb.watch/g-13L7fzwy/

Saturday and Sunday. @Boo Bearshould be there Friday

Yes I thought that as well and Sunday the rain isn’t supposed to start until afternoon.

Looks like rain only til 10 or 11 tomorrow - actually should keep crowds down more than anything.

Sweet, Colorado isn’t just a state, it’s a state of mind…same with jersey.

Note that in my initial post I was intentionally not comparing it to Blue who are also doing a great job with the amount of terrain they are opening in November - compared to one green trail (Pennsylvania at Shawnee) in the rest of the Mid Atlantic region.

TFTI but there will be a lot of other trails to ski at Blue Mountain like Connector and Easy Out.

I said I wouldn't drive that far based on price savings give travel cost and time. I will do it for 5 runs I'd enjoy skiing with 1500 vertical instead of largely lapping Freefall to Paradise all day.

Someone had a good idea to put it there. If it works out, it should be good for everyone. I wonder if they'll still have features on Come Around or just keep everything right there?

Please provide supporting documentation to substantiate this figure over the lifetime of your helmet usage which encompasses total cost of helmet including sales tax, and daily cost of skiing session. For ski sessions in which a season pass was used, provide a breakdown of total cost of season pass divided by number of days skied to calculate average daily cost. Please also include number of runs skied per day so the break down of helmet cost per run can be determined as well.

I got a new helmet, I figured after 17 years time to replace the Giro fuse. My per day cost on that helmet was like ten cents so got my moneys worth out of it. Also got a new jacket, new socks and new goggles. Buckmans was empty and the guy working there said Blue prob won’t open this weekend cause the rain will wash away all the snow.

What a huge terrain opening day for Blue. Super impressive. Busy, busy weekend for me but I'll try to get up at some point to get some time on the snow.

100% correct.

Wow just wow

Go eat your turkey saltman

You just reminded me to set an alarm for tomorrow. I also have to trim my toenails. Big day tomorrow
